Although located in Europe, Norway has not joined the European Union. However, it is a member of the European Economic Association, and is therefore covered by the EU/EEA Freedom of Movement legislation.
Norway's capital of Oslo is located at the head of a long fjord in the south-east of the country. Although a small city, with a population of just over 500,000, Oslo has become a bustling centre with a good range of shops, theatres, restaurants and bars. Bergen and Stavanger, on the south-west coast, are also lively cities with large expatriate communities mainly employed in the oil industry.
